Hello. I'm a first time betta owner, well pretty much my real first time I was ten so..., any way I have a male and a female. They are in separate tanks and the male seems very healthy, he has a good appetite and is very energetic. However my female doesn't eat much, if anything. I've had them for about two weeks and she seems okay she swims around a lot she just doesn't seem to eat. She must be eating something, though. I give them regular pellets (I guess thats what they are) and they're too big for her mouth so I crush them up for her and she'll take like one or two bites. I also tried tropical flake food which neither of them like. Any suggestions?

I feed my betta Nutrafin Max, Betta Food. It's flakes with natural colour enhancers, and he just loves it. I have to crush them into small pieces for him though, because they are big flakes. Sometimes I'll give him freeze dried blood worms, but they are too big for his mouth too, so I have to break them up. He doesn't seem to like them as much as the flakes.
